1111A workspace pairing links one Slack workspace (or Enterprise Grid) to your Claude organization so `@Claude` can run there. Your first pairing was created during [setup](/docs/claude-tag/admins/setup-overview). To add more, you must be an Owner in your Claude organization, and a Workspace Admin (or Grid Org Admin) in the Slack workspace you're adding.

4545## Set the version for a scope
4646
47Every scope routes to one of four versions. The control is at [`claude.ai/admin-settings/claude-tag`](https://claude.ai/admin-settings/claude-tag) → **Claude Tag's access** → **Slack** → the scope → **Advanced** → **Claude Tag version**. Channels Claude was added to appear under **Slack** automatically, and the **Search channels** field finds a channel's scope by name or ID.

5656Both versions answer through the same @Claude app, so **Off** turns off the Legacy version too. To opt out of Claude Tag while keeping the earlier behavior, set the scope to **Legacy**, not **Off**.

5858Per-scope version changes (workspace and channel) are reversible; see [Migrate from the earlier app](/docs/claude-tag/admins/migrate-from-earlier).

60## Turn Claude Tag on or off on the Team plan
61
62On the [Team plan](https://claude.com/pricing), you turn Claude on or off in every connected Slack workspace with one switch, at [`claude.ai/admin-settings/claude-tag`](https://claude.ai/admin-settings/claude-tag) → **Claude Tag's access** → **Slack** → **Default Slack** → **Enable Claude Tag**. The switch doesn't override a workspace set to **Off** on its own. On the Enterprise plan, and in a Team organization whose Slack configuration can't be expressed as one on-or-off choice (a scope set to **Legacy**, a workspace or channel set to **New**, a channel set to **Off**, an access bundle attached to a channel, or a migration from the earlier Claude in Slack still in progress), the workspace and channel entries under **Slack** show a **Claude Tag version** setting instead of the switch; use [Set the version for a scope](#set-the-version-for-a-scope).
63
64### Turn Claude off in channels
65
66Go to [`claude.ai/admin-settings/claude-tag`](https://claude.ai/admin-settings/claude-tag) → **Claude Tag's access** → **Slack** → **Default Slack** → **Enable Claude Tag** and turn the switch off. An @-mention in any channel gets "Claude is disabled in this channel" while the switch is off. Direct messages keep working. To stop those too, turn off the [**Allow direct messages**](/docs/claude-tag/admins/restrict-access#allow-or-disable-direct-messages) toggle.
67
68### Turn Claude back on
69
70Go to [`claude.ai/admin-settings/claude-tag`](https://claude.ai/admin-settings/claude-tag) → **Claude Tag's access** → **Slack** → **Default Slack** → **Enable Claude Tag** and turn the switch on. Everything you set on each scope, such as [access bundles](/docs/claude-tag/admins/attach-to-scope) and [custom instructions](/docs/claude-tag/admins/attach-to-scope#add-custom-instructions), applies again. A workspace set to **Off** on its own stays off, along with its channels; the switch doesn't override a workspace's own **Off** setting.
71
72### Turn Claude off for the whole organization
73
74Go to [`claude.ai/admin-settings/claude-tag`](https://claude.ai/admin-settings/claude-tag) and turn off the **Enable Claude Tag for your organization** toggle at the top of the page, above **Claude Tag's access**. That toggle turns off direct messages too.
75
76### Keep Claude out of specific channels
77
78The switch has no per-channel setting. Add [blocked channel patterns](/docs/claude-tag/admins/restrict-access#block-or-auto-join-channels-by-name) for the channels instead.
79
80### Notices that settings aren't applied
81
82When a workspace or channel entry shows a notice that its settings aren't applied, nothing you set there is lost.
83
84| Notice | What to do |
85| :----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | :-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
86| "These settings aren't applied while Claude Tag is disabled. They're saved and will take effect once it's enabled." | Go to [`claude.ai/admin-settings/claude-tag`](https://claude.ai/admin-settings/claude-tag) → **Claude Tag's access** → **Slack** → **Default Slack** → **Enable Claude Tag** and turn the switch on |
87| "These settings aren't applied while Claude Tag is turned off for this workspace or channel; the org-wide Enable Claude Tag setting doesn't override that. They're saved and will take effect once it's turned back on." | The workspace, or the channel's workspace, is set to **Off** on its own, and the switch doesn't override it. While you have the switch, the admin page has no control for that setting |
88| "These settings aren’t applied while Claude Tag setup is incomplete for this workspace or channel." | Select **Resume** beside the notice and finish that workspace's setup |
